Two major goals which the Department has focused on are (1) searching and developing 2 million ha of agribusiness land and aquamarine areas and (2) converting surplus production to lower prices of food items. For goal 1, 350,000 ha have been identified, of which 70,000 ha have been developed with the private sector, generating 124,000 new jobs. For goal 2, the Department has expanded the supply and reduced the cost of basic food items by establishing efficient logistics and marketing systems. Further, the Department has recommended a shift in focus from big farmers to small farmers and a change of program model from one that is supply-driven to one that is demand-driven and which is based on the principles of good governance based on transparency, accountability, and predictability and allowing meaningful participation by stakeholders.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keywords<\/h5>\n\n\n<div class=\"taxonomy-post_tag wp-block-post-terms\"><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=agribusiness\" rel=\"tag\">agribusiness<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=food-security\" rel=\"tag\">food security<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=market-based\" rel=\"tag\">market-based<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=philippine-agriculture\" rel=\"tag\">Philippine agriculture<\/a><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__separator\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/?tag=sustainable\" rel=\"tag\">Sustainable<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\"  class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TNP-2005-27-2_3_Vision-and-Aspirations-for-Philippine-Agriculture.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:1090px\" aria-label=\"Embed of TNP 2005 (27, 2)_3_Vision and Aspirations for Philippine Agriculture.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-a7602bac-b2e9-4f51-bfbb-449497a940cf\" href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TNP-2005-27-2_3_Vision-and-Aspirations-for-Philippine-Agriculture.pdf\">TNP 2005 (27, 2)_3_Vision and Aspirations for Philippine Agriculture<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/TNP-2005-27-2_3_Vision-and-Aspirations-for-Philippine-Agriculture.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-a7602bac-b2e9-4f51-bfbb-449497a940cf\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arthur C.
